contact / help

my mind is wound up tight, I can't sleep tonight
a spanish conversation is drifting in through the window
from down underneath the streetlight

you disappeared again, you might come back but I don't know when
there's no voice of reason, only tempers rising
between the woman and the man

nobody else is around and I need someone to talk me down

the spanish conversation seems to have no ending
but I'm still listening for one

Track Name: she won't say

she won't say what's on her mind I asked her one more time tonight
but she won't say why she's acting strange
why she seemed to change tonight

maybe it's just a bad mood, maybe there's some trouble back home
maybe it's got nothing to do with me
it's just something she's got to go through alone

she won't say, she lights a cigarette, acts like she's not upset with me
how can I try to understand something that I can't even see?

I wish I knew for sure what's going on inside her
if she wants to be with me why is she so far away?
she won't say

she won't say why she's laughing on the phone
but silent as a stone with me

Track Name: the things that show

you don't have to say a word you don't need to explain
let's just stay right where we are and listen to the rain
you don't have to be cool you don't have to be hot
you don't have to try to be anything you're not

I'm not asking you what you're thinking cause I don't need to know
I'm just looking for the things that show

you don't have to take care of me I'm not supposed to be your life
we don't have to stay together like man and wife
I don't have to entertain I don't have to be intense
I don't have to keep on talking until I make sense

if I don't call you up tomorrow it does;t mean that I forgot you
we don't have to hold each other tight and make promises til then
you don't have to do anything to get me to come back again

you don't have to try that hard you're not supposed to be my world
just stay right where you are and be my girl

Track Name: no guarantee

if i seem careless it's just the way I dress
it's nothing like the way I feel about you
if you call me but I'm out it should not make you doubt
it doesn't mean that I won't be here for you

I could never show you the proof that you are wanting
I could never give you the pieces that are missing
I can only ask you to believe me, there is no guarantee

we've all been hurt before and want to know for sure
I like to tell my secrets slowly
in my old beat up car the rain leaks right in
I'm just trying to get down the road in front of me

I could never show you the proof that you are wanting
I could never give you the pieces that are missing
I can only ask you not to leave me, there is no guarantee

I'm asking you to believe me

Track Name: slow fade

the picture does;t come in too good
messed with the knobs the best I could
each time I visit it goes the same way
you sneak off to the bathroom, what can I say?

I want to be with you - you don't me to
your decision has been made, you're doing a slow fade

I'm not a lonely mixed up kid
I don't need you like i did
I've got a hazy memory of something sweet you once gave to me

I want to be with you - you don't me to
there's a little less of you every day
you're doing a slow fade
I just hang around, watching you go down
it's easier this way, doing a slow fade

Track Name: exit 6

exit 6 looks just like you remember frozen in the headlights of the car
feeling like you did when you were younger
is the only way to get to where you are

when you left home you had no intention of taking off your clothes in a bar
things just seemed to go downhill in denver
but it's the only way to get to where you are

you can barely conceal your anger you wear it like a crude little scar
finding out the truth about your father
is the only way to get to where you are

exit 6 looks just like you remember you wonder why you had to go so far?
count yourself among the forgiven
it's the only way to get to where you are

Track Name: wave of sorrow

looking at your watery eyes I can see the wave rise
a universe much bigger than you and me - much bigger than me

don't worry I won't let go, you can hold on to me if you lose control
don't worry all you can do is let the wave of sorrow pass over you

for you I wish only the best, I want to wipe away all this distress
but I know it's been around much longer than me -much longer than me

Track Name: touched

beautiful face in the window more than a little strange
music just flows through your fingers
I know I've heard your name

I don't know why you had to go -it ended so suddenly
listening from the street outside
touched by the voice of an angel
that's how it sounded to me

beautiful face in a picture more than a little sad
were you bit by an addiction to things both good and bad?

I don't know why you had to go -so unexpectedly
listening in my room alone
touched by a vision much greater
higher than I'll ever see

I don't know why you had to go -it happened so suddenly
taken down by the undertow
pulled by the spirit of danger deeper than I'll ever be
touched by an ideal freedom
deeper than I'll ever be

Track Name: secrets

I'd like to hear the secrets that you keep dig up the past buried deep
to make the picture more complete

if I could see you as a girl around your neck a string of pearls
maybe I'd know why you ran from that world
if I could see you as a girl

I'd like to hear the story of your life reluctant mother unhappy wife
did you rush in without thinking twice?

you say you did things I would not believe angel dust and poppy seed
strange affairs with ex-marines
are these the things I won't believe?

did you write it all down in a book to let your conscience off the hook'
and when you're gone thenI can look?

I might have been a lot like you but I just never wanted to waste it all
the way you do
I might have been a lot like you

Track Name: she wants me to stay

if I died in my sleep last night, she said
no one would have known

tell everyone not to fuss over me
I'd rather be left alone

she doesn't like christmas -it's a depressing day
she does't want sympathy she waves it away
but she wants me to stay

I did not raise you to wait on tables
but no on ever listens to me

from the bed she reaches for her camels
as if I can't see

Track Name: if I could

I would turn my life around if I could
I would build back up from the ground if I could

I don't want to let the best ones slip away again
and don't want to shrug and have nothing to say again

I would turn my life around if I could

it's never been as plain as day to me before
I've never seen the error of my way before

if I could always be like this with you, I would

I don't want to waste my last breath explaining why
I showed up late I turn up lost I came up shy

I would turn my life around if I could
I would build back up from the ground if I could
